Design Meeting 2011
Computing for Spatial Design, Architecture, and Construction Informatics
This interdisciplinary meeting will stimulate and facilitate an active exchange on interdisciplinary applications, ideas, approaches, and methods in the areas of:
The meeting has been planned as a workshop in order to facilitate interaction between research communities that are addressing similar problems, and pursuing similar goals, but from different perspectives, and using diverse methods and approaches ranging from basic questions in computer science, to applied informatics and engineering research.
The meeting will be attended by researchers from a range of disciplines and qualifications encompassing Computer Science, Architecture and Civil Engineering, Mathematics, Cognitive Science, and Environmental Psychology.
This meeting is endorsed and supported by the Spatial Cognition Research Center (SFB/TR 8; Universities of Bremen and Freiburg, Germany).
